Research
URBAN CLIMATE : Cities create their own micro-climate : the so-called Urban Heat Island. This effect can either be good or bad (increasing the risk in case of heat waves for example). The urban climate is known since 1822 with the works from Luke Howard over London, but the community working on this topic, much smaller than the one on air quality for example, formed relatively late, in the 1970s, with the works of Oke, and modelling of the urban surface and urban micro-climate started around year 2000. The CAPITOUL campaign I coordinated was dedicated to the observation of the urban climate and aerosol-dynamics interactions over Toulouse. In 2022, I co-organized the PANAME2022 experimental capaign over Paris agglomeration area. This new experimental campaign allowed to gather observations on the various physical processes of interest (including energy balance measurements), as well as on the spatial variability of the UHI at high resolution for various neiogborhoods, including the vertical extension of the Urban Boundary Layer and the vertical effect of parks. These data will allow to validate the future atmospheric models at hectometric scales in urban areas.
I coordinates the development of the Town Energy Balance scheme. It is one of the first of surface schemes dedicated to urban surfaces. Validated against several measurement campaigns, it allows to reproduce urban climate features in high resolution atmospheric models, and is now incorporated in the French operational NWP model. It is also operationaly used in many European countries as well as in Canada.
In July2015, I organized in Toulouse with Aude Lemonsu the 9th International Conference on Urban Clumate (ICUC9), where approximately 550 scientists from 60 countries participated (http://www.meteo.fr/icuc9/).
CITIES AND CLIMATE CHANGE : Current Climate change is confirmed by the IPCC experts to be caused by the human activities, especially greenhouses gazes. Interactions of Climate Heating with cities are important, both because fossil energy consumption by human activities in cities greatly contribute to emissions, and because cities, where now most people live, and some economic activities are particularly vulnerable to modifications of weather due to this climate change. One can cite for example the 2003 heat wave in France and its health consequences and high casualties in Paris and other urban areas. The research team in CNRM is involved in the (mostly numerical) study of these interactions, at the scale of the century, between climate change, growing cities and technology or inhabitants way of life evolution. This is done in collaboration with economics, social scientist, architects and urban planners. Some of the questions that we address are : what influences the urban growth and what could be the possible city expansion ? What are the impact of these interactions in term of urban climate, energy consumption, CO2 budget, in-city renewable energy production, inhabitants comfort ? ...
WEATHER FORECASTING IN CITIES
I coordinates the "Paris 2024 Olympics Research Demonstration Project" of the World Meteorological Organization. Meteorological centers and universities of 10 countries participate to this project, in order to contribute to the numerical weather forecasting systems of the future, down to the scale of the neighborhoods. (http://www.umr-cnrm.fr/RDP_Paris2024/).
TURBULENCE & ATMOSPHERIC MODELING :I contributes to researches in link with atmospheric turbulence. In particular, I am interested in the interactions between the buildings (including high-rise ones) on the atmospheric flow, the interactions between forest fires and the atmospheric turbulence, and the influence of wind turbines and wind farms on the atmospheric boundary layer. I participates to works on the modelling of these interactions. To do this, are used Large Eddy simulations (LES) done with the MesoNH model, at resolution as high as one meter.
SURFACE-VEGETATION-ATMOSPHERE TRANSFER MODELS : Energy, water and mass exchanges between the surface (vegetation, deserts, sea, cities, etc...) drive the first meters of the atmosphere, that in turn influences (first through turbulent processes, see above) the atmosphere above. These exchanges are a lot variable in space and time, depending on diurnal cycle (especially over continent) and surface cover type. Vegetation and Surface schemes are dedicated to simulate these exchanges at the bottom of atmospheric models. I work in order to improve these schemes for a wide range of meteorological applications : the 1km ecoclimap database on the globe allows to initialise the cover type, and vegetation and soil characteristics for any atmospheric or climate model. It is evolutive to take into account future needs of surface schemes, as for plant growth simulation. I also integrated the surface schemes 1 themselves into the SURFEX software, that can be used either coupled to several research, NWP or climate models, but also used alone for surface research on surfaces processes or coupled to hydrological models.
